Can you run it?

Estimated VRAM at 8K context unless noted. Pick your hardware to see the verdict per quantization.

model.safetensors bf16 5.4 GB 6.8 GB ✅ Runs comfortably
model.safetensors (bf16, full) bf16 + 128K ctx 5.4 GB 12.9 GB ✅ Runs comfortably
Estimate: file size × 1.1 + KV cache at 8K + 0.5 GB overhead. Not a benchmark — how we calculate this.
